Instructions

      Make your pet food bag into a handbag, which you can use to carry groceries or other shopping. Cut the bag in half vertically along the seams, leaving just the front. Fold the front of the bag in half and sew the sides together so it forms a smaller bag. Line the bag with cloth or other fabric and add a zipper if desired. Attach straps and you can carry a strong and durable homemade bag to do grocery shopping.

      Use your pet food bags in the garden to carry soil or grass. When you are weeding or digging out your garden, a pet food bag will be strong enough to hold a load of soil or cuttings without breaking. This can be a way of recycling the bags for those who enjoy working in the garden.

      Use the pet food bag to help you begin composting. You can use a pet food bag to keep all of your food waste, which can then be transferred into a compost bin in the garden. Place your pet food bag in a small garbage bin to keep vermin out, and have your family scrape leftovers into the bag. When this is full you can place it on the compost and rake through.

      Use your bag to grow plants. Fill the bag with soil and sew up the top of it, so the bag is sealed. Lay the bag down flat and make small holes in it with a knife. Plant seeds in the holes and place outside. You can move the bags around if the weather turns bad, and your plants will begin growing inside the pet food bag.
